Things that have made me happy this week

Posted on December 15, 2014August 13, 2021 By Becky

Hello Monday! I am feeling particularly perky, as today is the first day in a month that everyone appears to be bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, and ready and raring to go. I might even have a whole Monday where I can get a decent amount of work done and get back…

The Gratitude Express- Turning 31 Special

Posted on December 3, 2014August 13, 2021 By Becky

On Saturday I turned 31, significantly less daunting than turning 30, although it’s always a little disappointing that the older you get, the less special birthdays tend to be ( especially if you spend your birthday ill. Have I mentioned this enough yet?!). I guess that’s what’s so great about…

Making memories AKA mangling mince pies!

Posted on November 23, 2014May 19, 2025 By Becky

Okay, so I know this is another Christmas-related post in November, but please bare with me! When I was growing up, one of the traditions I can remember in the run-up to Christmas, along with making the Christmas cake, was to make mince pies with my Mum, and bung them…

12 Things that have made me happy this week

Posted on November 9, 2014May 2, 2025 By Becky

Well, hello! This last week has been a crazy one- fabulously busy and exciting, yet un-fabulously tiring, stressful and with some challenging small-person behaviour, a real mixed bag! I have now started my new social media manager role, one that is great because it means I have two days a…

Things that have made me happy this week

Posted on October 19, 2014May 21, 2025 By Becky

This last week has been one of those very mixed weeks, where I’ve had days that have been, frankly, crap, and others where I’ve been ‘woohoo’! The crap has been getting over a sick bug from last weekend (not pretty) and catching up on life-admin, plus dealing with a sudden…

Things that have made me happy this week

Posted on October 3, 2014May 2, 2025 By Becky

1. Definitely at the top of my list this week: I have found THE wedding dress, I repeat, THE wedding dress! I went to try on dresses with my mum and best friend, not expecting to find anything first time looking, and got totally lucky! It has a vintage feel…

Bits and bobs…

Posted on August 25, 2014May 2, 2025 By Becky

Happy Bank hols! Just a quick catch up here with a few photos of what’s been going on lately here in glorious SE London- I feel that since Freddie has been off preschool for the holidays that the time to blog can be few and far between. Nay fear though,…

Lately…

Posted on July 21, 2014May 2, 2025 By Becky

Walking hand in hand with cousin Elsie// Watching Adam play cricket the other Sunday- a real olde worlde village location!// Our little bath dweller, he can’t get enough of water// Our pot of hydrangeas flourishing, I love looking at them from the kitchen// I love this playsuit I picked up…

Our week in numbers…

Posted on July 9, 2014May 2, 2025 By Becky

Good morning and Happy Thursday! I have to say that I’ve been suffering from blogger’s-block this last week or so- I’m afraid that I’ve had zero motivation to open the laptop and post, which I think happens to everyone from time to time. Couple that with being uber-busy in other…
